The Downeaster 'Alexa' - Audio Idols (音频偶像)[00:00:00]

Well I'm on the Downeaster Alexa[00:00:10]

And I'm cruising through Block Island Sound [00:00:16]

I have charted a course to the Vineyard[00:00:21]

But tonight I am Nantucket bound [00:00:27]

We took on diesel back in Montauk yesterday[00:00:33]

Left this morning from the bell in Gardiners Bay [00:00:39]

Like all the locals here I have had to sell my home[00:00:44]

Too proud to leave I worked my fingers to the bone [00:00:49]

So I could own my Downeaster Alexa[00:00:53]

And I go where the ocean is deep[00:00:59]

There are giants out there in the canyons[00:01:04]

And a good captain can't fall asleep [00:01:09]

I got bills to pay and children who need clothes[00:01:16]

I know there's fish out there[00:01:21]

But where God only knows [00:01:23]

They say these waters aren't what they used to be[00:01:26]

But I got people back on land who count on me [00:01:32]

So if you see my Downeaster Alexa[00:01:36]

And if you work with the rod and the reel [00:01:41]

Tell my wife I am trolling Atlantis[00:01:47]

And I still have my hands on the wheel [00:01:52]

Now I drive my Downeaster Alexa[00:02:29]

More and more miles from shore every year[00:02:35]

Since they told me I can't sell no stripers[00:02:40]

And there's no luck in swordfishing here[00:02:45]

I was a bayman like my father was before[00:02:52]

Can't make a living as a bayman anymore [00:02:57]

There ain't much future for a man[00:03:02]

Who works the sea[00:03:05]

But there ain't no island left[00:03:07]

For islanders like me[00:03:09]
